Has anyone experience of alloy corrosion tracking under the silver paint coating of the wheel centre caps with the alpine emblem and how to deal with it? :?

Yes, fairly normal. You can have them refurbished by most competent alloy wheel refurbers - sand blast, powder coat then wet paint to match wheel, new badges - come back like new.
